Substations

At Reuel, we offer self-contained compact power load center substations with innovation in size and cost reduction.

At Reuel, we offer self-contained compact power load center substations with innovation in size and cost reduction. The substations are constructed in our factory and shipped to your site, with very little on-site assembly required.

Most traction power substation requirements are unique to specific customers as our engineers work closely with the customer engineering departments in the development and production of the power control center to meet their needs. Substation specifications are analyzed and translated into engineering drawings.

We can supply both the electrical and structural design to meet the needs and requirements of a high quality power control center enclosure. We have designed and built just about every power control center enclosure configuration. We have included separate battery rooms, offices, work areas and restrooms. We have also supplied a variety of exteriors: brick, vinyl, galvanneal or whatever you require. Any size, shape or color can be provided.

Substations built in a factory offer considerable savings and reduction in lead-time as compared to substations built on site. On-site construction typically requires multiple contractors, inspections, and weather related delays.

Our substations are built in a climate-controlled environment by a team of professionals and tested before they leave our factory. They are then shipped to our customer’s location where we assist with on-site installation and start-up.
